《I Cheat the Hangman》歌词

[00:00:00] I Cheat The Hangman - The Doobie Brothers

[00:00:30] The days grow short the nights are gone

[00:00:34] Since you were here I can't go on

[00:00:39] I cried for you to no avail

[00:00:44] Now my life runs cold when the night winds wail

[00:00:50] But I cheat the hangman cheated him many times before

[00:00:55] The bell that tolls the hour

[00:00:58] Has turned sweet lips to sour

[00:01:00] Yes I cheat the hangman

[00:01:03] And even when life has flown away

[00:01:05] I leave a kiss behind

[00:01:20] The rain that fell upon my stone

[00:01:25] Like tears you cry I shared alone

[00:01:30] I walk the night I cannot sleep

[00:01:35] The love you spend you cannot reap

[00:01:40] But I cheat the hangman cheated him many times before

[00:01:46] The bell that tolls the hour has turned sweet lips to sour

[00:01:50] Yes I cheat the hangman and even when life has flown away

[00:01:55] I leave a kiss behind

[00:02:01] The glow of love will then shine

[00:02:05] Lighted windows stare

[00:02:07] At the stranger there returning home

[00:02:15] Only lighted windows stare

[00:02:18] At the lonely stranger there returning home

[00:03:35] I leave a kiss behind

[00:03:41] The glow of love will then shine

[00:03:45] Lighted windows stare

[00:03:48] At the stranger there returning home

[00:03:55] Only lighted windows stare

[00:03:58] At the lonely stranger there returning home
